Issue: - Cannot start live streaming a channel on an HdPvr Source if the HdPvr channel is being recorded
- Concurrent Live Streams from an HdPvr Source work OK if the channel is not being recorded
The issue does not happen on a Dvb-S or Dvb-T source
Scenario 1:
a) Start to view a channel on the HdPvr Source -> Live Stream works OK
b) Start to record the channel -> The recording starts (and records OK) and the Live stream continues
c) Stop the Live Stream -> The channel continues to record
d) Start to view the channel live again -> Fails
e) Stop the recording -> OK
f) Start to view the channel live again -> Live Stream works OK
Scenario 2:
a) Start to record a channel on the HdPvr source -> Recording starts
b) Start to view the channel live -> Fails
c) Stop the recording -> OK
d) Start to view the channel Live -> OK
Scenario 3:
a) Start to view a channel on the HdPvr source -> OK
b) Start to view the same channel from a different machine -> OK (NPVR Backend Status shows both clients active, so concurrent live streams work OK)
c) Start to record the channel -> OK (Backend status shows 2 live feeds and the recording feed)
d) Stop either feed and attempt to restart the live channel -> fails
An HdPvr capture card requires a dedicated Set Top Box, so a scarce resource which cannot be easily increased. This bug prevents viewing a channel if you also want to record it - unless you are able to start the live channel before the recording starts! It is obviously possible to watch (on multiple feeds) whilst recording, provided the live channels are started before the recording starts....
The attached logs show an example of scenario 3.
The clients used were Kodi 19.1, but the same results are seen if using the Npvr Web interface (the logs get more noisy due to transcoding!). Note that the test server is on the December NextPvr build, but the results are the same on the March build
Hey, I'm using the Linux version. When I try to scan channels it never scans. I tried using w_scan and get several channels. I've looked at logs and can't tell what is failing. Help!! Thank you.
Here are some of the scanned channels fro w_scan

I have two Android devices both runn NPVR version 1.7.200822
My tablet is running Android Android 10 Q Release Date of 24 May 2021
My phone is running Android 11 R Release Date 0f 26 May 2021
Neither device am I able to connect to my PVR remotely, IE off my network -- the same network as the PVR. However both devices connect while connected to the same network as the PVR. My PC is able to connect locally or remotely.
I have tried connecting using my public IP as well as by URL IE. PVR.mydomain.com. My notebook will connect by URL so I assume it should be able to connect by IP.
My PVR is a member of a domain, so I would like to be able to connect by URL so I don't have to switch servers.
Anybody have any ideas as to what is going on that my Android devices won't connect off my network?
Was wondering if anyone could answer this for me. Having an issue with irblaster, it's changing the channels with my stb I had use the learning option as my stb is an amino android box. The thing that is happening is it will change channels with to lets say 108 but if I try 226 it only puts in 26 and the same if I try 110 it only changes to 10. Why would thig be happening?
so...I have NextPVR server running as backend for KODI, newest version...it's 5.1.1 i think.
My sat>ip setup is
Selfsat dish => Kathrein Exip 418 => {LAN/Switch/Router} => Mini PC (server & client) => TV
( where Router is a Speedport hybrid router from German Telekom and Switch is a TPLink)
Works great. As long as I run NextPVR with using a .m3u file. Kodi (with NextPVR plugin) will see all the channels, everything fine.
I just want to get away from that external XMLTV EPG. As far as I understand, using a .m3u file to address channels on the Exip moves us towards "IPTV" and there is no over the air EPG for IPTV. (don't know if this is correct, it's what I understand)
So I though I try to scan the Exip tuner devices that show up in NextPVR instead of using a .m3u file. Unfortunately the scan doesn't find ANY channels on the exip.
I'll include a log to this post. Seems like the scan for each frequency runs into an error (mostly something with non-connected sockets).
Would be great if somebody of you could have a look on this.
I would even fill services manually (a few, just to test if it'll work and if over-the-air EPG does it's job). I mean, I know all the frqs, transponders, service names and whatever... I just don't know how ;-)
Forgot to mention: tried this with the most current NextPVR version and with 5.0.6. Tried it also with KODI switched off (Mini-PC acting as server only). Restartet Exip a dozends of times, Restartet the PC a dozends of times and ..... disconnected the entire setup from power, restarted everything. No change in behaviour.
I currently use tvheadend on linux with HDHomeRun network tuners. However I would like to switch to Windows.
I really like NextPVR but there is one feature missing that I used in tvheadend - support for multiple users with completely separate recording directories.
I suspect it would be a lot of effort to implement the same feature in NextPVR but I was wondering whether it's possible to run two instances of NextPVR v5 on the same machine running on different ports? I think this would allow me to achieve the same result.
I have seen posts about running v4 and v5 on the same server but I haven't seen anyone talk about 2 instances of v5 (hopefully I haven't missed it!). I suspect it might work in the same way although I'm not sure if I would be able to set up two services without changes to the code? Perhaps I could just start the second instance from a script?
I've had to switch cable TV providers after many years. I've got everything working great with the new providers and channels but I have a question.
With my existing reoccurring recordings in the database does NextPVR search on the show title or does it use something else on the backend like channel number or ID or something? The reason I ask is it seems like some of my reoccurring recordings are popping up like they should but other seem to not but I can't nail down a pattern.
Thank you.
